You call me a calamity? But I am Hyper Zetton!

The impact generated a shockwave that instantly spread, blowing away all the rubble within a radius of several hundred meters.

The awakened ones on the ground felt as if an earthquake had struck; they staggered and couldn't stand up straight.

"Retreat! Quickly, everyone retreat another two hundred meters!"

Qi Shanhai was covered in blood, and he used his ability to amplify his voice throughout the entire area.

The awakened ones then realized what was happening and ran for their lives, fearing that they might be stepped on by the two monsters.

It turned into minced meat right away, and you couldn't even put it back together.

......

The center of the battlefield.

The monstrous beast swung its claws in an attack, each claw carrying the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.

But when it hit Wu Bai's hard shell, it only produced a few sparks and couldn't even break through his defenses.

In contrast, Wu Bai's two sickles on his chest were practically the most efficient meat grinder.

"Pfft, pfft."

Each swing of the scythe cuts a deep, bone-revealing wound into the beast.

Blue blood splattered everywhere, covering the ground.

Wu Bai's fighting style was extremely brutal. He used his sickle to cut while simultaneously unleashing fireballs at close range to bombard the wounds.

Only a few minutes had passed.

The monstrous beast raised its head and let out a mournful howl. Its massive body could no longer hold on and collapsed with a crash, raising clouds of dust.

The surrounding mist creatures, which had been eyeing them menacingly, seemed to have lost some kind of guidance and scattered instantly, fleeing back into the depths of the mist.

The smoke and dust cleared.

The Awakened ones cautiously peeked out from behind their bunkers.

Seeing the fallen beast, they cheered with relief at surviving the ordeal.

"You...you won?"

"I've spent my whole life slaying calamities, but I never imagined that I'd be saved by one calamity in the end."

In the center of the battlefield.

A black hole opened in Wu Bai's chest, and the corpse of the calamity beast turned into specks of light, all of which were sucked into it.

......

Just then, beams of intense milky-white light descended from the sky—the support troops from the main city.

The beam of light dissipated.

A group of well-equipped Awakened looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.

And there was that giant beast standing in the middle of the corpses, looking completely bewildered.

"That's strange. Weren't they saying the beast tide was about to collapse?"

The last beam of light dissipated.

An old man wearing a green dinosaur onesie pajamas.

He appeared in mid-air, riding a flying sword covered in cartoon stickers.

The old man frowned, his hands behind his back, staring intently at the giant beast whose back was to the crowd.

The atmosphere on the ground went from tense to bizarre, and then it exploded.

"Look up at the sky! Flying on a sword! That's... that's the legendary Sword God?"

"Demigod Ji Changge? But... why is he dressed like that?"

"Shh, do you want to die? Do you think you can gossip about a master's quirks?"

Two streaks of light shot up from the ruins, and Ye Lan and Sun Bai, covered in dust, flew to the old man.

They respectfully clasped their hands in greeting to the old man, saying, "Greetings, Elder Ji."

When Ye Lan saw Ji Changge's fluffy dinosaur pajamas.

When he saw the whimsical flying sword at his feet, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Ji Changge didn't seem to care at all, and chuckled as he reached out to stroke his goatee.

"My little granddaughter was being fussy at home, and I was trying to get her to sleep when I received this level of combat readiness order and rushed over."

"I didn't even have time to change my clothes, please excuse the children."

Sun Bai quickly chimed in, "Being able to be Elder Ji's granddaughter must be a blessing earned over several lifetimes."

"Hahaha, you know how to talk, kid." Ji Changge laughed heartily, clearly pleased.

"Alright, enough with the small talk, tell me what the current situation is."

Ye Lan took a deep breath and briefly recounted what had just happened.

Ji Changge's eyes lit up as he listened. The giant beast was actually Hyper Zetton?

At first, he thought it was some kind of unobserved new calamity, after all, how could a calamity grow to such a size?

"That's interesting, it really came without any effort at all."

The smile in Ji Changge's eyes faded. "Since we've run into each other, I'll just kill this beast today."

"Sword, come!" Ji Changge shouted softly.

The flying sword at his feet, covered in stickers, emitted a clear, melodious sound and flew into his hand on its own.

The moment the sword was in hand, the comical old man in dinosaur pajamas vanished.

Instead, a sword immortal with unparalleled brilliance emerged.

There are no fancy moves or dazzling special effects.

He simply raised his hand and casually slashed down at the giant beast below.

A white sword aura more than ten meters wide tore through the air and struck Wu Bai directly on the back.

Wu Bai's massive body was slammed forward by the sword strike, and a gruesome gash appeared on his incredibly hard carapace, from which purple blood seeped out.

Wu Bai gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, and controlled the black hole in his chest to absorb the last bit of light particles into it.

As the black hole closed, his massive body slowly turned around, coldly looking at the old man in dinosaur pajamas in mid-air.

Without wasting words, Ji Changge flicked his wrist and unleashed another sword strike.

Wu Bai's luminous organ on his chest shone brightly red, and a fireball several meters in diameter with a temperature of one trillion degrees roared out, heading straight for the sword energy.

"Boom!" The attacks from both sides collided violently in mid-air.

A visible white energy shockwave spread wildly outwards from this center.

The Awakened Ones who were watching were instantly knocked to the ground.

After getting up, they were all covered in dust and dirt, and consciously retreated another three hundred meters.

Before the dust had settled, Ji Changge had already moved.

He gripped his longsword, treading lightly in mid-air, each step creating a sonic boom.

He transformed into a streak of green light and rushed toward Wu Bai.

Wu Bai showed no weakness, raising his massive scythe-like arm and slashing horizontally.

However, Ji Changge's movements were as agile as an eel.

He defied the laws of physics with several agile flips in the air, avoiding the attack.

His body slid almost against the huge scythe, rushing towards Wu Bai's shoulder and arm joints.

"Sever."

He raised his longsword high, and a giant phantom sword made of pure sword energy condensed above his head.

Without any pause, it struck down heavily.

"Whoosh..."

The giant sword pierced straight through Wu Bai's thick, massive scythe joint.

The arm was severed instantly, spurting blood as it crashed heavily to the ground, creating a large crater.

Ji Changge did not stop moving. Using the reaction force, he drew a semicircle in the air and circled to the other side.

Following the same method, the knife fell swiftly.

"Click."

The other giant scythe also broke off and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Wu Bai looked like a doll whose weapons had been removed, appearing rather pathetic.

He glanced at his empty arms, then looked up at Ji Changge, who hovered calmly before him, and let out a low, mocking groan:

"As expected of a human demigod known for his ruthlessness... Too bad you're too late."

"Late? I don't think it's late at all."

Ji Changge gave a cold laugh.

"I will kill you here today. Remember this when you are down there: the one who killed you is... a human demigod, Ji Changge."
